In high school I was very unlucky with the professors of letters. Between a boring teacher to death, a madman and a manic depressive, the literary culture I stopped to "Little Red Riding Hood" and "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs." I so wanted to get at least a "Cinderella", but it was not in school curricula.
So, once finished high school, I have been working by himself to the great classics, which in theory should you study in school.
If you are forced to read "The Malavoglia Verga because a teacher tells you is one thing, but if you read" The Malavoglia of your own free will, it is culture sadomasochism.
As you can imagine a novel like "The Malavoglia" where all those poor Christians who seeking social redemption, an escape to the economic misery, mathematically suffer bad luck? Or rather, undergo "flood of progress"?
His father died at sea during a storm just after he had undertaken a new activity: the sale of lupins. A child throws himself into his military career and died in war. One daughter moved into town and begins to be a prostitute. Another, named Mena, care must be taken to the family and despite the good guy did the court, refuses, why? Why must look after the family. The other brother remains of the house Nespolo, marries, has children and takes her sister, Mena, as a carer. It 'the only one where life's going well because it remains attached to his homeland. The story of the five fingers of the hand off if you go to rot, do not bat an eyelid.
When the poor at the end of the book appears Alfio in Mena love back to the office and asks her to marry again, this is doing? rejects it! Why? At 27 years old now ... But go to hell!
short, Verga was a class. If you born poor morivi poor and happy. If a poor man tried to pull up two more money later this month, well ... morivi always poor, but with terrible tortures. It depends on how you wanted to die, whether happy or tormented.
Also for S & M, Verga I also read "A Tale of a Capinera, since that day I hated Verga from the bottom and I have not read a his story. ... Poor Maria
So I jumped on Guy de Maupassant .
My big sister took a couple of books by this author well hidden the bottom of a drawer. Since she always kept the Harmony hidden somewhere siccme I read them behind his back and because I thought that Guy was an author of romance porn, I happily jumped in reading "One Life" .
From the first pages I thought it was a Harmony a bit 'more sophisticated, but still reading and using all my wit I realized that no, it was a romance. This novel ended very badly. Usually, romantic novels, end well. I cried like a Fontane, from beginning to end that poor Joan abused by everyone, even his son.
not pay I read the second book in the drawer hidden Maupassant: "bel ami" . The story of an asshole climber who used women to achieve his goals. I do not remember if in the end the protagonist is dead, but I hope both of you.
Maupassant I lent to my best friend who has since become a "emo," a cultitre of sadness. The passage from this novel to the songwriter Kill Hannah for her was short. It is now locked in a community detoxification, they do listen to Giuliano Palma from morning to evening.
For me not to miss anything I also read "Madame Bovary" by Flaubert.
The story of a girl who spent her time reading Jane Austin, and when she realized that her husband, a poor country doctor, absolutely no resemblance to Darcy, decided cornificarlo.
Luckily I stopped I also try to Darcy for men, otherwise the same fate today of Emma Bovary, nipped dall'arsenico. Oops ... maybe I should not say how it was going to finish this novel, but surely you've read all!
However, Jane Austin is the best writer in the history of Harmony!
Leaving aside the harmony and the so-called realistic novels, I have given to noir. Agatha Christie was a great disappointment, Arthur Conan Doyle a monstrous ball and Edgar Allan Poe? His "Tales of Terror" were not anything to fear. I do not know how to scare people in the '800, but today is certainly more disturbing to wake up next to Valeria Marini make-up or meet at a party in Arcore to do the "bunga bunga" with Berlusconi.
To do justice to Poe, I was terrified that story where he tells a lot of people buried. When he opened the tomb, they discover that the cover of the case is scratched and the people buried in a contorted position and looking terrified. In short, people buried alive. There 'this guy who suffers from catalepsy and ... I tremble at the thought.
Today I am going crazy for the thriller. If a book is titled "A code is something, well ... not read it. I'm the romantic mood and depressive, now pass directly to the murder!
